Quantum mechanics, superfluids, and capillary fluids are closely related: it is thermodynamics that links them. In this paper, the Liu procedure is used to analyze the thermodynamic requirements. A comparison with the traditional method of…
We present the first experiments of dissolution-driven convection of carbon dioxide (CO$_2$) in a confined brine-saturated porous medium at high pressures. We designed a novel Hele-Shaw cell that allows for both visual and quantitative…
We present a dynamic van der Waals theory. It is useful to study phase separation when the temperature varies in space. We show that if heat flow is applied to liquid suspending a gas droplet at zero gravity, a convective flow occurs such…
Let the interface between two immiscible fluids in a Hele-Shaw cell have, at t=0, a wedge shape. As a wedge is scale-free, the fluid relaxation dynamics are self-similar. We find the dynamic exponent of this self-similar flow and show that…
This paper investigates shear flow in a Hele-Shaw cell, driven by varying horizontal buoyancy forces resulting from a horizontal density gradient induced by a scalar field. By employing asymptotic methods and taking the dependence of…

Thermal motions in the 2D Lennard-Jones liquid near solidification are studied at equilibrium and under shear flow conditions. At the temperatures of the study, the liquid is significantly aggregated. On times of few to few tens of…
We explore transient heat transfer, on the millisecond time-scale, from a narrow, rectangular stainless steel heater cooled from one side by He II confined to a channel of 120 $\mu$m depth. The helium is isolated from the external bath with…
We study convection in a volumetrically heated fluid which is cooled from both plates and is under rotation through the use of direct numerical simulations. The onset of convection matches similar systems and predictions from asymptotic…
A two-phase Hele-Show problem with a time-dependent gap describes the evolution of the interface, which separates two fluids sandwiched between two plates. The fluids have different viscosities. In addition to the change in the gap width of…
This paper presents a numerical simulation and experimental results of a one-dimensional thermal inclinometer with the cavity filled of gas and liquid. The sensor principle consists of one heating resistor placed between two detectors. When…
In this research, a novel method to investigation the transient heat transfer coefficient in a channel is suggested experimentally, in which the water flow, itself, is considered both just liquid phase and liquid-vapor phase. The…
We describe several experimental methods to quantify dynamics in electron glasses and illustrate their use in the glassy phase of crystalline indium-oxide films. These methods are applied to study the dependence of dynamics on temperature…
Measurements of the energy relaxation in the integer quantum hall edge at filling factor $\nu=2$ suggest the breakdown of heat current quantization [H. le Sueur et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 105, 056803]. It was shown, in a hydrodynamic model,…
We describe the extension of a "viscous froth" model to the dynamics of a wet foam in a Hele-Shaw cell. The two-dimensional model includes the friction experienced by the soap films as they are dragged along the cell walls, while retaining…
Nonisothermal liquid sloshing in partially filled reservoirs can significantly enhance heat and mass transfer between liquid and ullage gasses. This can result in large temperature and pressure fluctuations, producing thrust oscillations in…
The CO2 emissions from major industries cause serious global environment problems and their mitigation is urgently needed. The use of zeolite membranes is a very efficient way in order to capture CO2 from some flue gases. The dominant…
Confined granular fluids, placed in a shallow box that is vibrated vertically, can achieve homogeneous stationary states thanks to energy injection mechanisms that take place throughout the system. These states can be stable even at high…
